Before Mechanical Weed Removal After Mechanical Weed Removal

Mechanical harvesting is an efficient, rapid removal method utilized when invasive aquatic vegetation has grown out of control. Our low-impact, lightweight amphibious mechanical harvester makes short work of heavily vegetated and overgrown areas, leaving you with a clean lakefront or pond, providing improved access to your body of water and aesthetics to your property.

Benefits of mechanical harvesting:

Immediate Results: Mechanical harvesting is effective immediately as operations provide rapid control of the target plant without temporary water use restrictions during or after the work.

Precision of Treatment: Plants are only managed where harvesting treatments are implemented providing an area selective control of nuisance species.

Nutrient Removal: Mechanical harvesting removes nutrients from the water body, enhancing treatment efficacy when combined with alternative forms of aquatic weed control.

Carbon Reduction: Plant materials removed in mechanical harvest operations are not left in the system to contribute to sedimentation and negative effects of decomposition.

Eco-Friendly: Mechanical harvesting removes unwanted vegetation while promoting a balanced habitat.
